Sustainable Energy and Clean WaterDownload the call for paper and sponsors
The BALEWARE 2016 conference will focus on scientific, technical and organizational innovations for water purification and clean water supply and their relation to sustainable energy generation.
It is expected to include training sessions for young researchers, academic research presentations, panel discussions for policy makers and non-governmental organizations, table top presentation demonstrating industrial innovations and a match-making session.
Field visits to relevant projects or companies are also foreseen. Initiated on the 29th of May 2015 at the Federal University of Parana, Curitiba Brazil, by Daniel A. M. Egbe, the coordinator of the African Network for Solar Energy (www.ansole.org), BALEWARE is a follow up of the EU funded project NMP-DeLA on Deployment of Nanotechnology, Materials and Production Technologies for Health, Water and Energy in Latin America (www.nmpdela.eu). As such, BALEWARE will promote joint initiatives and research proposals on Energy and Water for succeeding in the incoming public funding such as Horizon 2020 and any potential private funding (such as those open by different kind of private or bank foundations).

Target audiences

We welcome participation of researchers from Africa, Latin America and Europe, policy makers, industry manufacturing relevant systems as well as African start-ups developing technological solutions, NGOs and in particular students.
